Ban Companies from using online Questionnaires for job applications
I would like to ban companies and business from creating online questionnaires that make it hard for people with disabilities to have access to equal job opportunities. as well as creating a clear understanding Autism Spectrum Disorders.
i would like the government to consider subsidizing educational programs on Disabilities and Learning difficulties to all companies. hold companies accountable for the hiring managers in charge by making them prove that they have taken a course in Disability and Learning Difficulties. the government to make it illegal for companies require you to complete an online test in order to advance there application.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We understand you're concerned about difficulties people with disabilities can face when applying for jobs. However, employers are already required under the Equality Act to make 'reasonable adjustments' to their recruitment practices, so as not to disadvantage disabled applicants. You can find out more about this here:

www.equalityhumanrights.com/sites/default/files/your_rights_to_equality_at_work_-_applying_for_a_job.pdf
It is therefore not clear what more you would like the Government to do.
You could start a petition calling on the Government to fund educational programs on Disabilities and Learning difficulties for employers, if that is something you'd like to see happen.
